Intellivision at CGE2001

The Blue Sky Rangers returned to Las Vegas for the third year in a row for the annual Classic Gaming Expo, August 11 & 12, 2001.

Visitors to the Intellivision booth had a chance to play unreleased prototypes for the Intellivision, Atari 2600, and ColecoVision on the actual consoles.

One of the prototypes, Blow Out, was designed to be played by teams, so on Sunday two teams were assembled to give it a try. At various times in the game, a beep would signal for players to pass off the hand controllers to the next members on their teams. The fast passing of the controllers from player to player added a funny, physical dimension to the game.
